Key Details
- Optimized Length: Features a 12″ boom length, ideal for compact setups or placing accessories close to the player.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Built with a 12.7mm boom diameter to ensure maximum rigidity and minimize vibration.
- Precision Tilting: Equipped with a Brake Tilter and Swing Nut for secure, slip-free angle adjustments.
- Consistent Setup: Includes a hinged memory lock, allowing you to save your exact height and angle settings for rapid teardown and rebuild.
Use Cases
- Tight Kit Configurations: Perfect for drummers using small kits or playing in confined stage environments where a full-length boom would be obstructive.

Installation
Installation is straightforward and requires no specialized tools. Slide the boom rod onto a compatible Gibraltar stand, secure the hinged memory lock at your preferred height, and tighten the brake tilter to lock in your desired angle. The swing nut provides a final layer of security to ensure the hardware remains stationary during play.
